Panthers' Haynes King: Won't play preseason finale
King (hamstring) will not play in Friday's preseason finale against the Texans, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.
King suffered a hamstring injury in the Panthers' win over the Cardinals in the Hall of Fame Game on Aug. 6. He played well in that contest, but given his lack of practice reps and the fact that he'll miss the last three preseason games, King's place on the 53-man roster by the end of training camp is far from guaranteed. Kenny Pickett is expected to be Bryce Young's backup this season, so if the Panthers choose to roster a third quarterback, then Kyle Trask would be King's competition for the QB3 role.

Panthers' Darren Waller: Not expected to play in preseason finale
Coach Dave Canales indicated that Waller is not expected to suit up for Friday's preseason finale against the Texans, Anthony Rizzuti of USA Today reports.
Waller, who officially signed with the Panthers last Monday, didn't take part in the team's joint practice with the Jaguars on Wednesday and sat out Friday's ensuing preseason contest against the Jaguars. The tight end did see a couple of team reps in Monday's session, per Canales, but with the Panthers still easing Waller into the mix, it remains to be seen how much of a workload he'll see out of the gate this season.

Panthers' Xavier Legette: Remains in walking boot
Legette (ankle) will remain in a walking boot on his foot until Thursday, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.
Legette sustained an ankle injury during Wednesday's joint practice with the Jaguars, and given that he'll be in a walking boot until Thursday, he'll presumably sit out Friday's preseason finale against the Texans. When available, the 2024 first-rounder has an opportunity to claim a portion of the Panthers' WR targets that don't go to Tetairoa McMillan or Jalen Coker, a context that may not yield steady volume as long as both McMillan and Coker are available.

Panthers' Jonathon Brooks: Possible committee with Hubbard
Coach Dave Canales told reporters Monday that the Panthers will go with a committee Week 1 with Brooks and Chuba Hubbard (hamstring), provided that Hubbard is healthy, per Joe Person of the Athletic.
Hubbard logged a full practice Monday after missing time with a hamstring injury, which suddenly puts Carolina's backfield rotation back in flux. Drafters had been aggressively moving Brooks up the ADP all summer, and that movement took another leap after Hubbard was labeled week-to-week with a hamstring issue Aug. 13. Now, it appears that it will be a timeshare in the Carolina backfield, at least to begin the season. The caveat, of course, will be both backs remaining healthy by the time the season kicks off.

Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: Remains on track for Week 1
Hubbard (hamstring) remains on track for Week 1, according to Steve Reed of the Associated Press.
It was reported earlier in August that Hubbard was on track to suit up for Carolina's season opener, and per head coach Dave Canales he remains on track to do so. Should Hubbard suit up for Week 1 as anticipated, he and Jonathon Brooks will work in a committee, per Joe Person of The Athletic.

Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Logs two catches in preseason win
Tremble caught both of his targets for 20 yards during the Panthers' 34-17 win over the Jaguars in Friday's preseason game.
Tremble was listed as the Panthers' starting tight end Friday while Darren Waller observed the game in street clothes. Tremble played only five snaps on offense but made the most of his limited action, which included a 15-yard reception from Bryce Young during the Panthers' seven-play, 58 yard drive in the first quarter that ended with a one-yard touchdown run from Jonathon Brooks. Tremble has logged 23-plus catches in each of the last three years and more than 230 yards in his last two seasons, but his playing time in the regular season could be limited by the presence of Waller.

Panthers' Ryan Fitzgerald: Makes six kicks Friday
Fitzgerald converted two of three field-goal attempts while making all four PATs in Friday night's preseason game against the Jaguars.
Fitzgerald contributed 10 of the Panthers' 34 total points in the effort, making 48- and 61-yard field goals while missing a 31-yarder. The second-year kicker out of Florida State proved he has the leg for long-distance snipes but also flashed some consistency issues by missing a short-range kick. Overall, Fitzgerald had a good night and proved why he will remain the Panthers' starting kicker heading into the regular season.

Panthers' Xavier Legette: Dealing with ankle injury
Legette has his right foot in a boot due to an ankle injury that he sustained during Wednesday's joint practice with the Jaguars, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.
Legette twisted his ankle after he was rolled up on during Wednesday's session, and the injury prevented him from playing in the Carolina's 34-17 preseason win over Jacksonville on Friday. Panthers head coach Dave Canales told reporters after Friday's exhibition game that he wasn't sure whether Legette will practice in the coming week, making it unlikely that the 2024 first-round pick will suit up for the team's preseason finale against the Texans on Friday, Aug. 28. While Legette is sidelined, Jimmy Horn, John Metchie and David Moore will all see additional reps as the team's WR3 behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker.

Panthers' John Metchie: Makes case for WR3 spot
Metchie caught six of seven targets for a game-high 77 yards in Friday's 34-17 preseason win over the Jaguars.
While Metchie led the Panthers in catches, targets and receiving yards, he didn't make his first reception until the second half, as Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker worked with the starters in the first quarter and David Moore and Brycen Tremayne were Kenny Pickett's wideouts in the second quarter. Once Metchie got onto the field, however, he made an immediate impact and showed strong chemistry with Pickett. Now on his fourth NFL team after being a second-round pick of the Texans in 2023, Metchie is coming off the best stretch of his career in the second half last season with the Jets. The Panthers' WR depth chart remains unsettled behind McMillan and Coker, and Metchie's effort Friday should keep him in the running for a significant role once the regular season rolls around.

Panthers' Jalen Coker: Just one catch in preseason win
Coker caught his only target for four yards in Friday's 34-17 preseason win over the Jaguars.
The Panthers' starting offense played the entire first quarter, but Coker wasn't a focal point of the passing game while Bryce Young was under center. Coker is coming off an intriguing second half in 2025, posting a 29-349-3 line on 36 targets over the final eight regular-season games before erupting for nine catches, 134 yards and a TD on 12 targets in a wild-card loss to the Rams. The third-year wideout figures to be Young's second option behind Tetairoa McMillan.
